About
Out of the secret world I once knew, I have tried to make a theatre for the larger worlds we inhabit. First comes the imagining, then the search for reality. Then back to the imagining, and to the desk where Im sitting now. From his years serving in British Intelligence during the Cold War to a career as a writer, John le Carr has lived a unique life. In this, his first memoir, le Carr is as funny as he is incisive reading into the events he witnesses the same moral ambiguity with which he imbues his novels. Whether hes interviewing a German terrorist in her desert prison or watching Alec Guinness preparing for his role as George Smiley, this book invites us to think anew about events and people we believed we understood. Best of all, le Carr gives us a glimpse of a writers journey over more than six decades, and his own hunt for the human spark that has given so much life and heart to his fictional characters.
